Services
Sports Injury Physiotherapy
Specialised treatment for sports-related injuries including ligament sprains, muscle strains, and overuse conditions. We employ manual therapy, biomechanical assessment, and tailored exercise programmes to restore function and prevent recurrence. Our physiotherapists have experience working with elite athletes, including Olympic competitors.
Back Pain Treatment
Comprehensive management of acute and chronic back pain through joint mobilisation, soft tissue techniques, and posture correction. We address underlying biomechanical issues and provide targeted core stability exercises to improve spinal support and reduce pain recurrence.
Acupuncture
Integrated acupuncture services provided by AACP-qualified practitioners. This evidence-based approach reduces pain and muscle spasm by stimulating specific points on the body, often combined with conventional physiotherapy techniques for enhanced recovery outcomes.
Core Stability Training
Specialised programmes to strengthen deep trunk muscles, improving spinal support and movement efficiency. This service addresses biomechanical imbalances that contribute to recurrent injuries, particularly beneficial for athletes and individuals with chronic pain conditions.
Biomechanical Assessment
Detailed evaluation of movement patterns to identify postural abnormalities and muscular imbalances. This assessment informs targeted interventions to prevent injuries and enhance athletic performance through improved mechanical efficiency.
